New publication from @castello_lab and @FranklinSystems in @MolecularCell 🚨🚨🚨! We discover a group of nuclear #RBPs that travel to the cytoplasm to inhibit #virus #infection. We discover a novel #RNA mediated antiviral mechanism mediated by the U2snRNP

We have a job opening: We are looking for a postdoc to work on RNA and glial biology in flies. It's a 2 year post to use ground breaking tech to study post-transcriptional regulation. More information and apply at: https://t.co/6sJdGckpgT #sciencejobs

It has been 7 years since I first fell in love with the beauty of the fruit fly. Now I hope to convince you all with these amazing images created using spatial transcriptomics on whole head and whole fly(!) samples! Biorxiv ( https://t.co/fjNYdCnIhc) or https://t.co/IWa5QTQRio 🧡

New preprint from the @castello_lab, showing that #HIV packages its genome with over 100 cellular #RBPs into viral particles. These proteins can play critical roles, e.g., PURA and PURB binds to key elements in HIV genome and enhances virion infectivity

After a LOT of work, our latest paper is out in @JCellBiol today. A screen of 200 genes throughout the fly nervous system shows post-transcriptional regulation is the rule rather than the exception. Video abstract and plain English explanations next week

A screen of 200 genes to single molecule resolution finds that discordance between location of mRNA and protein is common in the nervous system of #Drosophila. https://t.co/a5gvgejFUP Contact @ilandavislab to discuss, images and metadata available here: https://t.co/9ueOBdzZ3t

Come work with us. A 5-year postdoc has opened up for a Viral RNA Biologist with advanced imaging experience. Part of a large collaborative team with @McKeatingLab and Fadi Issa's lab, we aim to better understand the molecular mechanisms behind chronic Hepatitis B infection. 1/2
